Hi Lowri,

I hope that you are well. When working at Thackray I used the Plastics SSN information a fair bit, this might help if you've not seen it already,

Good luck with it,

Happy Friday everyone,

I wondered if anyone has any useful resources on plastics in museum collections? Particularly how to identify different types, what the challenges of those are and how to mitigate these. We’re looking at acquiring a plastic anti-pollution cycling mask (https://totobobo.co.uk/product/anti-pollution-mask-totobobo/ ) and I want to investigate the potential issues fully before proceeding…

Many thanks,

Lowri
